[Thanks David - if you have any spectra of the starting materials it would be helpful to upload them on their respective ChemSpider entries. Just make sure that they are on the right scale. Have you been able to fix your product NMR on the right scale -you were still off by 1ppm last I checked. Once you do you can get the rotamer ratio from the diastereotopic protons around 4 ppm giving 2 nice doublets for each rotamer. JCB] Dr. Antony Williams processed the original JEOL files into the ACD/NMR Processor and exported them as JCAMP files. The new JCAMP files were scaled properly. For some reason, the JEOL conversion software didn't convert the files correctly. The spectra of the starting materials can now be found under the "Spectra of Starting Materials" section below.
Since Google Wave is "Sunsetting" in 2012, here's a zip file with all the files and discussion from the wave: Ugi Characterization Wave.zip
NMR Spectra: Sample 2, Sample 4. Note: Samples in deuterated chloroform and original solvent was methanol. [Assuming that the peak at 8.2 ppm is residual CHCl3 and the other 2 are methanol it looks like your spectrum is shifted by 1 ppm and there is almost nothing else in there - how much material did you use to make up the NMR sample? JCB] I have redone the NMR analysis below with most of the methanol evaporated and a higher concentration of Ugi product in the solution. Furthermore, the most recent 1H NMR spectrum (uc234_2_2_hnmr) is not shifted as bad, although it does seem to be backwards.
Characterization by NMR
A concentrated sample of Ugi Product labeled "Ugi2.2" was prepared in CDCl3. Various 1H and 13C NMR runs will be performed on this sample, including some two-dimensional analyses. These will be used with NMR prediction software (HyperChem release 7.5 and HyperNMR) to confirm the identity. [You might get some info from the NMR prediction software but your best bet is to compare against**NMRs for Ugi products**with alkynes JCB] That is a great idea! Comparing with 173G19-4 in Exp193 should especially aid the characterization of the groups from the phenylpropionic acid and benzylamine as well as the rotamers. Infrared Spectroscopy will also be used to identify key functional groups and to compare with 173G19-4 in Exp193.

1H NMR: 234hnmrcorrected[it looks like the spectrum is off scale - I don't see CHCl3 peak at 7.27ppm and the high field protons are at very high ppm ranges JCB] It should be corrected now.[no still looks like it is off - see for example 241-8A the cyclohexyl group should be up to 1.5ppm but in your spectrum it is above 2 ppm - in the future add a tiny amount of TMS so that you can set the reference to the zero ppm peak JCB] 1H NMR with TMS: Ugi2.1tms.pdf, Ugi2.1tmsdoublet.pdf, Ugi2.1tmsclose.pdf

Discussion
Extra peaks appeared in DEPT135 that do not show protons on the chshf. There has been problems with the DEPT135 this semester. A quick fix was attempted by widening the peaks. However, this does not seem to have worked. The DEPT90 spectrum contains even more extra peaks and contains all of the peaks found in the DEPT135, which was not expected. This could be explained since the DEPT90 has had even more problems than the DEPT135 and a fix has not been attempted. I was informed of this after the spectra were collected.

Researcher
David BulgerObjective
To characterize the only Ugi product which precipitated from Ugi Reaction Blog#002The list of attempted reactions is available on LaBLog.
Reactants: 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde, phenylpropionic acid, benzylamine, and cyclohexylisocyanide
Procedure
Previous Experiment
The experiment can be found at Ugi Reaction Blog#002.NMR Spectra: Sample 2, Sample 4. Note: Samples in deuterated chloroform and original solvent was methanol.
[Assuming that the peak at 8.2 ppm is residual CHCl3 and the other 2 are methanol it looks like your spectrum is shifted by 1 ppm and there is almost nothing else in there - how much material did you use to make up the NMR sample? JCB] I have redone the NMR analysis below with most of the methanol evaporated and a higher concentration of Ugi product in the solution. Furthermore, the most recent 1H NMR spectrum (uc234_2_2_hnmr) is not shifted as bad, although it does seem to be backwards.
Characterization by NMR
A concentrated sample of Ugi Product labeled "Ugi2.2" was prepared in CDCl3. Various 1H and 13C NMR runs will be performed on this sample, including some two-dimensional analyses. These will be used with NMR prediction software (HyperChem release 7.5 and HyperNMR) to confirm the identity. [You might get some info from the NMR prediction software but your best bet is to compare against **NMRs for Ugi products** with alkynes JCB] That is a great idea! Comparing with 173G19-4 in Exp193 should especially aid the characterization of the groups from the phenylpropionic acid and benzylamine as well as the rotamers. Infrared Spectroscopy will also be used to identify key functional groups and to compare with 173G19-4 in Exp193.

Discussion
Extra peaks appeared in DEPT135 that do not show protons on the chshf. There has been problems with the DEPT135 this semester. A quick fix was attempted by widening the peaks. However, this does not seem to have worked. The DEPT90 spectrum contains even more extra peaks and contains all of the peaks found in the DEPT135, which was not expected. This could be explained since the DEPT90 has had even more problems than the DEPT135 and a fix has not been attempted. I was informed of this after the spectra were collected.
